Latest review

First review round: 8.0 weeks. Overall rating: 3 (good). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
One of the reviewers was extremely biased and had destructive criticism, she/he did not even read the results section, but just scrolled through the graphs, the second reviewer had more constructive criticism and seemed to had actually read the manuscript. The Editor decided to reject the manuscript based on that.
